Effect of defect depth on surface plasmon scattering by subwavelength surface defects
Surface plasmon scattering by bidimensional indentations and protrusions is examined, mainly in the optical regime. The width of the defects is fixed, while their height is varied. Both individual defects and arrays of defects are considered. Protrusions mainly reflect the incident plasmons in the optical range. Indentations mainly radiate the incident plasmon out of plane. An indentation produ...
متن کاملScattering of a surface plasmon polariton by a localized dielectric surface defect.
On the basis of a rigorous, nonperturbative, purely numerical solution of the corresponding reduced Rayleigh equation for the scattering amplitudes we have studied the scattering of a surface plasmon polariton by a two dimensional dielectric defect on a planar metal surface. The profile of the defect is assumed to be an arbitrary single-valued function of the coordinates in the plane of the met...
متن کاملNear-field and far-field scattering of surface plasmon polaritons by one-dimensional surface defects
A rigorous formulation for the scattering of surface plasmon polaritons ~SPP’s! from a one-dimensional surface defect of any shape that yields the electromagnetic field in the vacuum half-space above the vacuummetal interface is developed by the use of an impedance boundary condition. The electric and magnetic near fields, the angular distribution of the far-field radiation into vacuum due to S...
متن کاملTheory of the scattering of light and surface plasmon polaritons by finite-size subwavelength metallic defects via field decomposition
A theoretical model is presented for the scattering of light and surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) by finite-size subwavelength metallic defects. Based on the decomposition of the scattered fields into SPPs and quasicylindrical waves (CWs), an SPP–CW model is developed to depict the multiple scattering of SPPs and CWs in finite-size defects using the elementary scattering processes in a single ...
متن کاملSubwavelength photolithography based on surface-plasmon polariton resonance.
The use of surface-plasmon polariton (SPP) resonance in the optical near field of a metallic mask to produce fine patterns with a resolution of subwavelength scale is proposed. Preliminary numerical simulations indicate that the critical resolution is mainly determined by the thickness of the metallic mask. The surface of the metallic mask on the illuminated side collects light through SPP coup...
